The Howard Pinkley Landing was the effort of Howard Pinkley, a predominant member of the Point Place community. Howard had the vision of using the small but greatly accessible city park for the non-motorized watercraft community. There are 6 parking spaces available.

The floating deck is only 8 inches above the water line, which makes access easier and a helping railing extends out beyond the floating deck to help stabilize the entry and exit of canoes or kayaks. The dock ramp and deck is wide enough to accommodate the handicap.
